Hi Year 3,
Today in SMSC we are going to make progress by bringing together everything that we have learnt over the past few weeks.
What do you know about Christianity?
How do Christians show their beliefs?
Watch the video below. It is about a woman called Rosa Parks.
Rosa was a Christian. The following parts of the bible may have inspired her.
‘There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male or female, for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.’ Galatians 3: 28
‘Do to others what you would have them do to you.’ Matthew 7: 12
‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’ Matthew 19: 19
‘God created human beings in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.’ Genesis 1: 27
BRONZE
Write 5 questions you would ask Rosa Parks, the bus driver or the man on the bus.
Try thinking of questions that address the characters’ feelings and motivation, especially why, as a Christian, Rosa Parks felt it was important to stand up for her rights.
SILVER
Write a diary entry from the perspective of Rosa Parks.
What was she feeling? What was she feeling? Why did she do what she did? How did she feel afterwards?
GOLD
Write an interview with one of the characters set in modern
times, as if it happened today.
Do people think that the man on the bus or the bus driver would now regret their actions?
Do they think the rules were wrong? Would Rosa Parks think that she behaved correctly?
What would she think about racism in the world today?
